Just got a press release that’s worth mentioning as it’s a really neat point of growth for both Creative Market and WooThemes who have apparently joined forces! Check out the official release announcement, which was handed to us a week ago but effective today:
There are a number of us who are making the transition from working a full-time job (that we may not necessarily love) into a more be-your-own-boss type lifestyle with freelancing, specifically with WordPress. This is a neat transition and one that is both very exciting but also fraught with tough decisions, a bit of anxiety, and let’s a honest, an unknown future. Be encouraged though as many have gone before you, and have lived to tell the tale! These two great WordCamp presentations may give you more fuel to your fire:
I hope you all had a great weekend! It’s a second day in a row that I get to share new and updated themes and plugins. Themes hold a special place in my heart, so I get a little giddy 🙂 Check them all out after the jump!
I have a whole mess of new and updated themes and plugins. It seems to be quite the productive weekend for these authors. I’m sure some of these could help you pass the time this weekend too 🙂 Check them all out after the jump!
It’s Friday! Friday! Gotta share some plugins on Friday! Everybody’s looking forward to the WordPress Weekend…weekend. Check out these new and updated plugins after the jump!

WPRoller, which we covered previously, is a system that allows you to create your own custom installs to shortcut the boring process that is often repeated for many of us. They’ve just had a big update that includes the following as you can now grab plugins for your installer zips from three sources: From their curated category lists. Your own uploads From the WordPress Repository directly. You can even save your zip installer configs and “re-roll” them for later use!
Show Notes Host This week’s host is Doug Stewart. Doug can be found on Twitter at @zamoose and online literalbarrage.org. How the Doug got started in WordPress Doug got started on Blogger. When he began looking around, he wanted to find something that would allow him to install something at home and use it. WordPress hit 1.0, and he installed it on my home machine in 2004. He then got involved in the Philly Meetup in early 2005. What they are sipping? Dre: San Diego Stone Pale Ale Brad: MacPhail’s Scotch Doug: Yuengling Lager Pressing topics WordCamp OC featured a […]
